Totally "that mom" tonight-- baking GF at 10pm

I found out at 9:30 tonight that snack tomorrow at DS' playgroup would not be GF. Yes, I have store-bought GF cookies in the pantry, but all the other kids will be eating homemade brownies. I want him to have something just as delicious and special... and I want to show the other moms that you can bake GF. Soooo... I was "that mom" throwing together a batch of cookies at 10 pm. Ok, it was a mix, but they're still homemade and yummmy! Anyone else done this late night scramble to provide an allergen-free alternative for their kiddo?

    Oh, yes, many times. I'm sure she will love her treat that you are baking for her!!

    On a sidenote, I used to lots of late-night baking parties where I would cook up a ton of pancakes, muffins, breads, pastas, etc., to freeze and pull out for individual meals. Days like this: https://www.themagicofmama.com/2010/04/baking-baking-and-even-more-baking.html 

    Fun, fun, fun as an allergy mom. :)

    Good work!

    I have done it once.  My daughter has eggs for breakfast every morning and she is getting so tired of it, so I tried to make her blueberry muffins once.  I had to use her Neocate formula for the milk replacement, and applesauce to replace butter, and wheat flour.  Tasted like shiit to me, but she loved it!

    I've done that too.  Even when I have cupcakes, cookies, and muffins in the freezer I'll still stay up late to make the brownies if that's what everyone else is having.  :)

    Many times!  Especially for birthday parties.  I'm always "that mom" bringing a cupcake for DD.  So, I usually make a bunch of batches and freeze them so I always have one on hand, just in case something comes up at the last minute!

    yep!  unfortunately the brownies turned out burned on the edges and raw in the middle...so he had boxed cookies for the party anyway....
